So six weeks ago I brewed a northern brewer milk Chocolate stout. Tapped it yesterday and it is delicious! My wife is a big cofee drinker and loves it. I am not as much of a cofee drinker and its still delicious.

Couple thinks I noticed and may want to tweek. First off here is my brew schdule

Couple things I noticed.
1. OG was estimated to 1.049. So I was 11 points off my OG. Not sure what would have caused that

2. Head retention is nill. It foams up but all the head is gone after 30 seconds or so. What could I do different next time to increase that?

3. My wife loves the espresso backbite but I dont and I dont really taste the chocolate too much. If I was to brew this again what could I change to dial back the cofee flavor and dial up the chocolate flavor?

Other than that I consider this a success for my very first AG. I have a IPA fermenting right now as my 2nd batch!
